Academic Achievements
  • Showed that the symbolic process model outperforms traditional and parametric fMRI analysis methods; located working memory updates and declarative retrievals within the fronto-parietal network.
Research Experience
  • Used a symbolic process model for model-based fMRI analysis; applied this method to five previously published datasets; collaborated with John Anderson to use Hidden Markov Models in combination with multivariate pattern analysis to automatically discover cognitive processing stages in EEG data.
Education
  • PhD student in the Department of Artificial Intelligence at the University of Groningen until 2011, supervised by Niels Taatgen and Hedderik van Rijn.
Background
  • Associate Professor in Computational Cognitive Neuroscience, with a main research interest in developing and improving analysis methods that connect computational (cognitive) models to neuroimaging data.
Miscellany
  • Currently advising one postdoc, Gabriel Weindel, and five PhD candidates: Ram Eshwar Kaundinya, Moritz Held, Joshua Krause, Yuanyuan Weng, Yiyue Zhang.
